Method
 

How to Make Buttery Pecan Pie Bark
  1. Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F). Line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil, lightly greasing it to prevent sticking.
  2. Place graham crackers side by side in an even layer on the baking sheet, breaking them as needed to fit.
  3. In a medium saucepan, mix together the unsalted butter, brown sugar, chopped pecans, and salt. Heat over medium, stirring continuously until the mixture reaches a boil. Keep it bubbling for 2 minutes.
  4. Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Quickly pour it over the graham crackers, making sure they are evenly covered.
  5. Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for about 10 minutes until bubbly and golden.
  6. Take the baking sheet out of the oven and let it cool completely. Once cooled, break the bark into pieces of your desired size.
